Family Has a Concubine

Chen Miao, who was suddenly promoted, was taken aback. He was very excited, and hurriedly stepped forward to thank him: Thank you, Lord Long En.

Emperor Zhengxuan looked at Chen Miao below, but smiled faintly. Chen Miao has always been good, and he even taught a Tanhua Lang. In order to train his son, he even brought his son to farm together. It can be seen that he is a good official for the people.

Liao Shoufu stood aside, his eyes turned cold when he saw this scene.

That Chu Yunpan blocked the way of his grandson-in-law. Originally, he had prepared a big gift for him, and the outside was all arranged, so that he could be exonerated and sent to prison in one fell swoop.

I didn't want to, but Qin's incident happened, which suppressed his arrogance. Liao Shoufu thought, taking advantage of this gap, he will be accused of colluding with the former academy and reselling the test questions of the capital academy in a few days.

Unexpectedly, he was wronged in the matter of the Qin family, and the emperor accused the censor because of this, saying that they framed people without evidence. If the matter of the hospital examination is exposed again, the emperor will be furious, thinking that he is targeting Chu Yunpan.

At the cusp of the storm, it is natural not to commit crimes against the wind.

Liao Shoufu touched the tip of his nose, just bowed his head and remained silent.

Report! At this moment, a guard from outside rushed in and knelt down on the marble floor.

What's the matter? Emperor Zhengxuan frowned.

Going back to the emperor, I just received a letter from Yingcheng. Old General Feng has already arrived in Yingcheng. The guard said holding a booklet.

Seeing this, the little eunuch quickly took the paper and presented it to the dragon case.

Emperor Zhengxuan's face immediately sank, and the courtiers looked subtle. Emperor Zhengxuan said: Are you here now? He sighed fiercely and frowned slightly.

From Beijing to Yingcheng, water and land routes alternately travel, and it can be reached in half a month at high speed. But Old General Feng set off on the sixth day of April, and now it is the last day of April, and he arrived on April 30th. It has been a full month! Obviously, General Feng's health was too much for him.

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhengxuan became worried.

Don't worry, Your Majesty, Old General Feng may have been delayed by an important matter. Minister of the Ministry of War said.

That's right. The officials below responded quickly.

Emperor Zhengxuan sighed slightly, turned around and scolded the censors: Look, how many important affairs of the country have not been resolved, don't just stare at those messy, sesame mung bean trivial matters all day long!

The censors were so frightened that they all bowed their heads and said nothing. What can they impeach for family and country affairs? What can a little mistake do? The emperor will not take it seriously! If it's a big deal, there is no need for them to impeach, the emperor was furious first. Nothing! They can only grasp the discipline!

How is the situation in Yingcheng? Emperor Zhengxuan asked again.

The guard said: After Old General Feng came to Yingcheng, the people were still hesitant, but the young generals of Feng have calmed down and are ready to counterattack.

The old general has rich experience. When he arrives at Yingcheng, he will lead a few young generals to drive out Xilu and the Nanman thieves. Qian Zhi said.

The courtiers quickly echoed.

Emperor Zhengxuan sighed slightly and nodded. Originally, Old General Feng was asked to go, but he was only asked to sit in the town and conspire, to appease the younger members of the Feng family, let them find their focus, and then drive Xilu and Nanman out.

Liang Wang, who was standing aside, showed a sneer on his lips. What can an old man who is nearly eighty years old be good for? It will take nearly a month to even travel.

For a moment, he hoped that the Feng family would be defeated so that Chu Yunpan would have a chance to go out. I don't want to lose that side for a while, what if Chu Yunpan doesn't have enough experience and dies there?

...

Hanlin Academy——

After Cai Jie comforted Chu Yunpan, he left.

Chen Zhiheng said happily: Yun Pan, I knew that things will always be resolved.

Go back and thank Aunt Chen for me. Chu Yunpan laughed.

Zhao Fanxu looked at them as relatives, and felt overwhelmed.

Seeing that Chu Yunpan was going to be punished, Chen Zhiheng was also involved in this matter, and he would be implicated. In fact, in the past few days, Chu Yunpan and Chen Zhiheng did not go to the study room again, which obviously had an effect. Who would have thought that it would be reversed...

The more Zhao Fanxu thought about it, the more he didn't know what it was like.

At this time, a young eunuch walked in with a smile and said to Chen Zhiheng: Editor Chen, congratulations, Mr. Chen was promoted to the right servant of the household department.

Ah? Chen Zhiheng was startled, Haha, my father has been promoted!

As he spoke, he stood up and bowed to the little eunuch, Thank you for your letter. He took out a small ingot of silver from his sleeve and gave it to the little eunuch.

The little eunuch came here just to ask for a reward. After getting the money, he immediately left happily.

When Zhao Fanxu heard that Chen Zhiheng's father had been promoted, he was in a bad mood.

In the first class, he has the worst background. Born as a country gentry and a small landlord, he has no reliance on officialdom. I was already envious and jealous of Chen Zhiheng's background, but now that Chen Miao has been promoted, Zhao Fan needs not to mention a sour word.

This morning, not only Chu Yunpan was rehabilitated, Chen Miao was promoted, but there was another thing, that is, the emperor relieved the prince's restraint and asked him to help prepare military supplies.

The prince has been grounded during this time, but everything outside is clear.

Knowing that Yao Li was taken off his horse, the prince dared not speak out. Although it was just a position of servant, it was insignificant to him.

After all, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, the Minister of the Ministry of War, the Minister of the Ministry of Households, and the five city soldiers and horses are all his people. Yao Li went down, and he will try to reinstate him in the future.

But he was angry that it was Zhang Zan who pulled Yao Li down!

Zhang Zan is also one of his people. Now, he actually pulled his own people down. What is this?

After the morning court, Zhang Zan was blocked by the prince's people, and made an appointment to braise the world.

Entering the private room, Zhang Zan saw the prince sitting on the teacher's chair under the window, he immediately stepped forward and saluted the prince: See Your Highness the Prince.

The crown prince looked at Zhang Zan who was kneeling in front of him, his elegant and handsome face was cold: Master Zhang, get up!

Zhang Zan straightened up. When he pulled Yao Li off his horse, he knew that he would be scolded by the prince one day.

Master Zhang knows who Yao Li is, how did he find out about him? the prince said coldly. For this kind of thing, the media officer is enough, pick it up heavily, put it down gently, enough is enough. Rather than get to the bottom of it.

Zhang Zan said: The emperor has the intention to test, so he has to do it.

The prince was stunned, his face still cold, and he responded lightly: Oh.

The emperor doesn't like his courtiers who have two hearts, but why does he like it?

Zhang Zan raised his brows and looked at the prince: Your Highness, I don't understand something, and I want to ask Your Highness.

What's the matter? The prince raised his eyebrows lightly.

At the beginning of April, during the full moon banquet for the great-grandson of the lower officials, Concubine Bai also came. Concubine Bai said that the reason why Manman lost the election was not because the Empress Dowager didn't like it first, but because the higher-ups didn't like it. What does this mean? Zhang Zan couldn't express the anger in his heart, but tried his best to hold it back on his face.

The prince's face froze, Zhang Manman couldn't be chosen, in fact, he was attracted to Bai Ruyan's beauty, and Bai Ruyan was crying and wanting to be a side concubine. He doted on her back then, so naturally he obeyed her in everything. And he also wanted a beautiful side concubine, so he designed Zhang Manman.

Not only did Zhang Manman get rid of Zhang Manman, but the reputation of Zhang Manman and the Zhang family was ruined, Zhang Zan also made Zhang Zan think that the fault was with the Zhang family, and he was even more devoted to him.

In the past, the reason why he agreed to marry Zhang Manman was because Zhang Zan helped him with several important things, and everyone agreed. As a result, he backtracked, and now that he was exposed in front of Zhang Zan, the prince was extremely embarrassed and embarrassed.

If it was before, he would have become angry or mocked Zhang Zan. Because he was holding too many things in his hands, and there was no shortage of Zhang Zan.

But now, General Feng is dead, the Feng family is in trouble in Yingcheng, and Yao Li has been punished. He feels a little uneasy, so he has become cautious about Zhang Zan from the previous dispensation. .

He straightened his expression: Master Zhang, what do you mean by your words? I don't understand.

In fact, everyone understood the meaning of the words, but the prince pretended to be ignorant, Zhang Zan understood that the prince still wanted to win him over, his eyes flickered slightly.

The crown prince said: Master Zhang, there must have been a misunderstanding during this period. He snorted coldly, It must be Bai Ruyan, a woman who is so vain, knowing that Miss Zhang was injured, and deliberately mocking her. Women love to care about these things. Don't care about small things if you make a big deal, Mr. Zhang, don't be as knowledgeable as these foolish women, and I will punish her severely later.

Zhang Zan knew that he had something to say, so he cupped his hands: It turned out that it was just a verbal dispute between their wives, but the officials are supercilious.

Master Zhang is just caring for his granddaughter, it's because of my lack of control. The prince smiled faintly, Master Zhang, please sit down and have a drink with me.

good!

...

After General Feng arrived in Yingcheng, almost every day a letter from Yingcheng was sent to the Dragon Case, but the battle situation was not optimistic. He was often beaten by Xilu and Nanman, not only did not drive people out , and lost a lot of people.

The atmosphere in the entire court seemed extremely heavy.

These days, Ye Tangcai only saw Chu Yunpan going out early and returning late, lying on the window sill and looking around all day long.

At noon that day, I finally saw Chu Yunpan leave the Yamen on time. When he walked into Qiongmingxuan, Ye Tangcai rushed over: Third Master, what's wrong with you recently? Do you often not come home?

Busy. Chu Yunpan walked into the room while talking.

Then go to her bedroom, there is a small cabinet next to her dressing table. He opened it, and then found a package wrapped in black cloth, which was something he had left here before.

Do you always go to the prince after leaving the Yamen? Ye Tangcai frowned.

Yeah. Chu Yunpan nodded, and walked out with the package in his hand.

Ye Tangcai followed him step by step: I'll go too.

No! Chu Yunpan immediately refused.

Ye Tangcai curled her lips, and took his hand: Take me! Take me! As she spoke, she looked at him anxiously.

Chu Yunpan looked at her with wide open eyes looking at him like that, his face was moved, his heart melted, but he refused in a cold voice: No, you will be fine at home.

After speaking, he shook off her hand, turned and left.

Looking at his cold back, Ye Tangcai felt extremely wronged: What about the one who agreed to recruit me into the gang and plot rebellion together? Now you won't play with me?

Huiran was sweating while listening, this is a good thing! Why do you make it look as if you are yearning for an outing?

Huiran was speechless for a while, and then bowed to the sky, thank God for not taking her to play!

It would be better not to do those terrible and dangerous things in the future.

Girl, let's go back to embroider! Hui Ran said and dragged Ye Tangcai back to the house.

Ye Tangcai pouted: I don't want to embroider at home!

In the end, people were still pulled in. Ye Tangcai looked at the newly cut clothes, three of which were from Chu Yunpan.

Ye Tangcai picked up a piece of light blue hang silk and embroidered it, sighed slightly: Okay, let's embroider it!

The family has been extremely peaceful these past few days. Ever since Qin's small birthday banquet, Qin and Chu Miaoshu have been hiding in the Yixiang Courtyard all day long, saying that they are sick, so they don't even need morning and evening meditation.

Ye Tang was very happy.

The fourth day of May is Chu Miaohua's birthday, the atmosphere at home is not good, who will hold a banquet with her? It's just that Aunt Bai accompanied her outside to play for a day, so it's a pass.

Soon it will be the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Due to the incident in Yingcheng, the emperor has no intention of watching the dragon boat, so he didn't go to Tianshui River that day.

Although the common people also cared about the affairs of Yingcheng, they didn't know the situation there, so they passed the Dragon Boat Festival lively.

Ye Tangcai was depressed and didn't go to join in the fun, and Chu Miaoshu didn't have the face to go out, so she didn't go either. Chu Miaohua naturally did not go either.

On the tenth day of the fifth lunar month, Ye Tangcaicai had a decent breakfast, and then embroidered flowers on the Luohan bed with Huiran.

Qiu Ju's voice shouted from outside: Girl, Biao Gongzi is here.

Ah! Ye Tangcai was startled, then raised her head: Cousin is here.

After saying that, he put down the embroidery frame and walked out, and saw Qiu Ju walking in with Qiu Jing.
